Effective Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

Effective Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

The Series of Positive Airway Pressure devices from DeVilbiss Healthcare is designed to meet the varied needs of people suffering from Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) and Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB). Built to the highest standards the series is a robust compact range of CPAP devices which can be used both in the home and hospital environment. The s multi voltage capability allows it to be used virtually anywhere in the world and it can also be operated from a 12 V power source such as those found in a motor home. For the monitoring of patient compliance DeVilbiss Healthcare has developed SmartCode and SmartLink which are available for use with all models of. with SmartFlexTM Inside Standard / Standard Plus The Standard device is a fixed pressure CPAP and delivers a constant pressure of between 3 and 2 cm H 2 O. The Standard Plus model adds SmartFlex technology, an expiratory relief function designed to lower the average pressure throughout the night for added user comfort. with SmartFlexTM Inside AutoPlus The AutoPlus has a unique autoadjusting algorithm that responds to apnoeas, hypopnoeas and snoring to deliver the most effective therapy whilst sleeping. The AutoPlus model also features SmartFlex expiratory relief for increased patient adherence. BiLevel S The BiLevel S is a variation on traditional CPAP. Instead of providing air at a constant pressure all night the machine senses if you are breathing in or out and varies its pressure level accordingly. This is particularly useful for those users who require a higher pressure setting. Auto BiLevel The Auto BiLevel adds an extra level of comfort for BiLevel users. With our proven autoadjusting algorithm the Auto BiLevel constantly monitors for apnoeas and events. Upon their detection the BiLevel pressure automatically adjusts to deliver the best possible treatment during sleep. BiLevel ST The BiLevel ST is designed to enhance the breathing of patients with spontaneous respiration. It does not breathe for the patient but instead supports those who suffer from chronic respiratory failure, breathing difficulties or OSA. Features include a customisable trigger, real time display and a pressure range of 3-2 cm H 2 O

SmartLink 2..6 software package Events The SmartLink 2..6 software from DeVilbiss Healthcare is a comprehensive therapy management system for monitoring and recording CPAP usage and evaluating the effectiveness of CPAP therapy. Device management The SmartLink platform is the ideal therapy management tool for physicians and healthcare providers as it allows the user to easily track and monitor their patients. Pressure (mbar) Notes and reminders can be set up in the built-in calendar. Daily and overdue reminders are also highlighted in the SmartLink dashboard. Documents can be attached directly to patient notes within the database New study data on the data card is automatically detected and imported into the software. Direct connection to PC is also available. Databases can be added to local and shared networks. All patient databases from previous versions of the SmartLink software can be imported. Data analysis Raw analytical data is displayed in the SmartLink dashboard. This allows users to sort, filter and export data for further analysis. Pressure Statistics AHI Easy to use dashboard provides key SmartCode and SmartLink metrics, recent activity and reminders in a user friendly tabular format. Dashboard layout can be customised to show or hide specific fields, metrics or parameter statistics. Data can be exported into Excel for data analysis and backup purposes Snore Index SmartLink report editor The SmartLink report editor is a user friendly reporting tool which enables the user to customise patient reports to clearly display key data using tables and graphs. 7 standard report templates patient information, nightly, summary, monthly SmartCode, oximetry and multi-night Average Leak (L/min) Easy to use report editor for generating up to four customised versions of each report Drag and drop feature enables data and graphs to be arranged in preference order. Reports can be easily exported into various file formats

SmartCode SmartCode is a simple and effective way to remotely track compliance data. SmartCode is an alpha-numeric code that is shown on the display of the which provides summary data for the previous day, 7 days, 3 days, 9 days or cumulative. The SmartCode reading and an internet connection or SmartLink 2 desktop software is all that is needed to access the patients information. The device does not need to be directly connected to the computer, nor does it use memory cards. SmartCode is available in every model of without any additional fees, equipment or software and provides insightful data that can be used to determine the patients compliance. with SmartCode display 3 3 Apnea/Hypopnea Index 3 3 High Leak Flow Time (> 9 L/Min) Events/Hour 2 2 1 4. 4. 3. 3 Last 9 Days Last 3 Days Last 7 Days Last Day % of Time Used 2 2 1 2 2 3 1 Last 9 Days Last 3 Days Last 7 Days Last Day 3 3 Non-Responding Event Index 3 3 Exhale Puff Index Events/Hour 2 2 1 Events/Hour 2 2 1 1.7 1. 1.2 Last 9 Days Last 3 Days Last 7 Days Last Day 2 2 3 1 Last 9 Days Last 3 Days Last 7 Days Last Day Model Standard Standard Plus BiLevel S AutoPlus AutoBilevel BiLevel ST Parameters % of days at least 4 or hours (min threshold) Day count Days at least 4 or hours Average hours per day While breathing hours As above including the following parameters: Apnoea / Hypopnoea Index number of apnoea / hypopnoea events detected/hr Non-Responding Event Index number of non-responding events detected/hr High Leak Flow Time % of therapy time that the system leak was above 9l/min EPI Exhale Puff Index (mouth breathing) As above including the following parameters: Time at Pressure 9th / 9th percentile pressure Pressure Plateau percentage of time at upper pressure limit As above including the following parameters: % Machine Inspiration % breaths in which the Timed Backup has been initiated on inspiration % Machine Expiration % breaths in which the Timed Backup has been initiated on expiration

Features & Accessories SmartFlex Expiratory Relief SmartFlex increases the comfort and adherence to the CPAP therapy by reducing the pressure when the patient is exhaling. SmartFlex has three settings, each of which reduces the CPAP pressure by 1 cm H 2 O during exhalation. SmartFlex can either be used for the whole night or simply during the ramp period to enable patients to fall asleep more easily. If an apnoea, hypopnoea or a snore is detected SmartFlex will turn off and will only resume once events are no longer detected. SmartFlex is available in the Standard Plus and Auto Plus. ssure Flex 1 Exhale Rounding 1- SmartFlex and Flow Rounding settings Inhale Rounding 1- Flex 2 Flex 3 Flow Rounding Flow Rounding is a patented technology from DeVilbiss Healthcare which enables a smooth transition from inspiratory (IPAP) to expiratory pressure (EPAP). There are 6 levels of flow rounding with level having the steepest slope and quickest transition and level having the gentlest slope and slowest transition. By tailoring the pressure waveform (see diagram) according to the users requirements, the chances of waking the patient are reduced and comfort is increased. Heated Humidifier The optional heated humidifier integrates seamlessly into the CPAP devices and offers the patient 1 heat settings to ensure maximum comfort during therapy. SmartLink Module (For Sleep Labs and Physicians only) The SmartLink module can be added to any device increasing its capability from being a CPAP to a complete therapy management system. When attached to a Auto Plus up to 3 years usage data, 12 detailed nights data and 72 hours of oximetry data (using optional oximeter) can be collected, providing all the parameters to optimize patient therapy management. Optional Heated Humidifier SmartLink Module and Software package Pulse Oximeter By adding the oximeter accessory to the, it becomes the ideal device for conducting CPAP titrations and split night studies. A selection of different probes are available including finger probes and an ear probe. The oximetry reports are combined within the SmartLink 2 desktop software for greater ease of patient analysis. with SmartLink Module and pulse oximeter attached
